I personally feel Ben has better resemblance of Gandhi and did an awesome job

I'm sure if Naseer had been chosen (and I think he's AWESOME

), somebody would have griped that they chose a Muslim for the role ... Sigh. Can't win.

Good photos.

BTW. this thread is a year old.

After watching the Gandhi film, Sabarmati Ashram (Gandhi's ashram) in Ahmedabad is a special place to visit.

For those with the DVD, at approximately 2:02:00 into the film when Gandhi and the American reporter (played by Sheen) are chatting by the Porbandar seaside - you see large crane like objects on the pennisula behind Sheen's head. Does anybody know what exactly they are - smoke stacks, shipping cranes or oil drilling equipment? They've always raised my curiosity & striked me as being a bit out of place for that time period .....
